The case has areas of discoloration, especially around the lugs, which can be expected due to usage and age. The watch has superficial scratches due to normal wear and age. The overall condition of the watch is good.  Running at the time of inspection, however, was not checked for accuracy nor water resistance/proofness. An overhaul is always recommended for used watches.
